While the font size setting works very nicely, the formatting of the headings is not diplayed correctly anymore (large headings are much smaller than they should be, at least on my k3gb, FW3.4).
Edit: By default (if no style is specified in the style sheet) the kindle renders heading sizes in steps that correspond to the steps on the Aa key. For old mobi format: <h5> is normal text size, <h4>, <h3> etc. increase one step each, same as <big></big> tag.
I would, however, expect that if font-sizes are specified in the style-sheet relative to the normal font (like h1 { font-size: 2.0em;}) this should not be affected by the font hack. But even in this case the font size actually displayed seems to be related to the steps assigned to the Aa key for old-style mobis (mobi7) only: Although the html in the mobi file contains h1 { font-size: 2.0em; }, the displayed fontsize is much smaller. I guess this is just the strange way the kindle renders mobis, not a problem of the font-hack.
No problems with KF8, works as expected.

The KindleTool part is easy once you created the framework-api-en_US.jar, framework-impl-en_US.jar and MobiReader-en_US.jar files. In the update_fontfix_0.8zip, go to the src directory where you'll find a batch file called build-updates.cmd (along with the install.sh and uninstall.sh files). You can just copy/paste the kindletool lines for your model (k3gb) from the batch file into the cmd window.
